An Assistant Director of Commissioning, North West England, said:

“The offer from My Home Life England has helped to empower and equip care home managers to face the challenge of delivering high quality effective care and support in the current climate.

It’s been amazing to see the journey they have been on and, as part of our integrated Care Home Strategy delivery, we hope to continue to build on this in the future”.
